Working with SAS Data Sets |
SAS/IML software provides the capability to
create a new SAS data set from a matrix.
You can use the CREATE and APPEND statements to create a SAS data set from
a matrix, where the columns of the matrix become the data set
variables and the rows of the matrix become the observations.
Thus, an matrix produces a SAS data
set with
variables and
observations.
The CREATE statement opens the new SAS data
set for both input and output, and the APPEND
statement writes to (outputs to) the data set.
